The computer needs to be inspected by an authorized service center. Liquid damage is often extensive and ongoing due to corrosion. Electronics and liquids do not result in good outcomes.

Remember the scene from the movie Alien when its body fluids ate through multiple decks? Wine is not hydroflouric acid, but it is sufficiently acidic to due grave damage to electronics. At minimum, you are looking at a keyboard, or worse replacement bill at your nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Center.


I never drink anything within a foot of my keyboards or Macs as a safety precaution.
