What color is Benjamin Moore Elderberry Wine?
Benjamin Moore Elderberry Wine CSP-470 is a deep, muted wine-purple with a noticeable berry-red cast beneath its shadowy plum base. Its richness makes it especially effective in dining rooms, powder rooms, libraries, or bedrooms where darker wall color can feel intentional rather than heavy. In brighter light, the red-violet character becomes clearer, while lower light draws out its dusky, near-black depth. Pair Elderberry Wine with warm ivory, soft greige, or pale blush for contrast, and add walnut, aged brass, or blackened metal for grounded texture. It also makes a strong choice for cabinetry, a painted interior door, or a single accent wall when a full-room application feels too dramatic.

LRV of Elderberry Wine
Elderberry Wine has an LRV of 7.18% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 7.18%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
