It's certainly possible. I can't remember if Reads of Norfolk
are also vine specialists, but there is a good one in East Anglia.

We got a Canon Hall vine from Reads (the King of dessert grapes, IMO) but it
was a very tiny baby when it arrived. We kept in it one of the tunnels for
a year and planted it into the soil in a greenhouse two years ago. This
year it's going to fruit for the first time - can't wait!
