Don't panic, unplug it from the mains, flip it over, remove the battery first and then the hard disk (in that order). Also don't even worry about shutting it down first (rebuilds are cheaper than new laptops) and just I just pray for you if you don't have a UniBody MacBook.

Why Wine and Macbooks Don't Mix…and How to Handle the Aftermath
Ready for a revelation? A concept that you've never considered before? Well here it is: never ever, ever poor a glass of wine into your Macbook keyboard. Or, more practically put, be extremely careful when there's a drink of any kind near your laptop. If a spill occurs, and you don't act quickly enough, you'll find yourself staring at a massive bill for a new logic board, hard-drive, battery, and anything in between.
Accidents do happen — so plan on it. What's more important is that you learn exactly what to do when these spills inevitably occur.
