About ROW 94
Launched in September 2024 by Dierks Bentley and crafted at the historic Green River Distilling Co. in Owensboro, Kentucky, ROW 94 has quickly become America’s Highest Rated New Bourbon. It recently received a 94 rating from Wine Enthusiast and has expanded its lineup with Broken Branches and Full Proof bottlings.
“We’re witnessing a profound yearning for real-world experiences, and nothing compares to the power of bringing people together for live music,” says Robert Trinkle, Senior Vice President for PriceWeber and Chief Marketing Officer for ROW 94. “ROW 94 was built on a passion for country music—celebrating everyone who makes those nights unforgettable, from the roadies backstage and artists on stage to fans who’ve earned the right to unplug, grab a cocktail, and soak in that unmatched live energy. Partnering with The VINE is a natural fit, and it’s a privilege to be part of the Kentucky music scene.”
