I can't recommend vines for the Northwest as we are in East Anglia and our
vines only went in this year. But this was where I ordered ours from
http://www.winegrowers.info/vines/frame.htm and I cannot recommend them
highly enough - excellent service.

Reads are also in East Anglia, but probably less into the bulk vine
supplies.

Out of interest the vines I chose - and I'm only really interested in wine
grapes - were Rondo, Regent, Phoenix, Orion and Bacchus. All are growing
vigorously.

That isn't the problem. Pretty well all varieties of Vitis vinifera
will grow well in the UK. The problem is getting them to crop, and
getting the grapes to ripen.
