Benjamin Moore

Bordéaux Red

1365

Bordéaux Red is a deep burgundy with a clear violet undertone. An LRV of 9.32 places it among the darkest values, so it reads dense and saturated on full walls. It is suitable for dining rooms, libraries, or focal areas that need a dark red-violet.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore Simply White and Edgecomb Gray for light balance, and with Hale Navy or Hunter Green for contrast; Mauve Mist or Pink Damask can soften the transition.
