About Napa Vineyards
Napa Vineyards (427) is a deep, bold green from Benjamin Moore that leans yellow. With an LRV of 35, Napa Vineyards absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Napa Vineyards's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, kitchen islands and cabinets and accent walls. Next to Green Thumb (CSP-870), it's more colorful.
