The recent improved weather has caused the grape vine to start sprouting
much foliage and buds of the fruit. Is it to late to do any more pruning
or thinning down of the foliage?

Fruit 'buds' already? Are you sure?

Well, my Vitis coignetae has.

Yes, it is far too late to cut into last year's growth, but you can
pinch out shoots and buds with no problem.
