Valspar

Rare Wine

1011-9

Rare Wine sits close to black plum with a smoky red purple base. Its near-black value makes the plum note subtle. Save it for a powder room, bookcase wall, or interior door when the surrounding palette can support strong contrast.

The color needs warm light to show its wine note. Set it beside ivory trim and aged brass to keep the mood easy. In dim hallways, it may read almost black.

Rare Wine in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
