Can you get wine stains out of marble?

A marble stain happens when wine has the chance to absorb into the stone countertops. We suggest you start by blotting up any excess red wine and use cool, clean water to remove the red wine residue. Next, use a mixture of three parts baking soda to one part water to form a paste.

Can alcohol stain marble?
