However, if you take the proper care, and ensure wine spills, hot liquids, oils etc. are cleaned and removed quickly, your stone should look good and stand strong for many years.

The best method is to use warm water and gently wipe down any spills immediately. If necessary, you can usually use neutral detergents which will help break down touch stains or spills.

However, make sure you do not use scourers or any type of abrasive cloth, this will scratch your stone and ruin its appearance.
