What to do about odor from red wine on carpet?

I spilt a whole cup of red wine all over my carpet yesterday. I didnt know what to immediately do really when it happened other than grap a few wet towels and put liquid laundry detergent on the end of them and scrubed the carpet really good until the stains were barely , if at all visible in the carpet.





Then I heard a few hours later that "Resolve" carpet spray was good to use , so sprayed some of that as well all over that area and rubbed the carpet again with a towel.





I still think i am smelling that red wine and was curious if this will be its new smell or will it eventually go away ?





any further recommendations?





Thanks!|||Your first actions have made the proper method difficult because the wine has been pressed down in the padding of the carpet. Hot steam extraction would have been the best method. Although extraction could still be possible, the smell could still come up again. Try renting an extractor or contact a carpet cleaner who can use an enzyme to eat the bacteria that is causing the smell. Pet odor carpet products that utilize an enzyme work well.|||Vinegar will do the job|||Use white vinegar (the stuff you'd use to pickle onions in)on the stained area....even if there's no stain visible it'll get rid of the odour after you've washed the vinegar off with some detergent.





I know this works because I spill-ed a whole bottle on a white wool carpet once!
