Alabaster vs Sparkling Wine

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Alabaster belongs to the beige-greige family and Sparkling Wine to the beige family. Alabaster (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Sparkling Wine (LRV 75), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
