Best Answer

Red wine can be turned blue by the addition of Sodium Carbonate Peroxyhydrate (commercial name Proxy Clean), which is a type of dry hydrogen peroxide used for cleaning purposes. Most often used in cleaning winery equipment. It is also found in color safe bleaches or laaundry products like "Oxy Clean". In the case of white wines, it turns the wine orange. Obviously not for human consumption.
