Mulberry Wine

1251 / CC-6

Mulberry Wine is a muted, mid-tone purple-mauve with gray undertones that soften and desaturate what might otherwise be a more vivid berry tone. With an LRV of 27.95, it reflects a moderate amount of light and reads as a dusty, restrained purple rather than a bold one. The gray component gives it a smoky quality, while a subtle rose cast emerges in warmer lighting conditions.

Benjamin Moore suggests pairing it with Acorn Yellow (2161-40) for a warm complementary accent, Powder Sand (2151-70) as a light neutral backdrop, Nordic Gray (CC-576) for tonal depth, and Yellow Freeze (2020-70) to brighten adjacent surfaces.
