Someone in another group I read wants to move some 100 year old grape

depends upon what type of vines. if they are grafted
upon different root stock, etc.

how many vines?

if they are self-rooted (all the same plant with no
graft) then they would be much better off by taking
cuttings from 1yr wood and rooting those (similar to
how you'd do roses or many other woody stemmed plants).
