In fact, the black grape that we have pot-grown up the kitchen wall seems to
fruit better than any of the outdoor ones have ever done.
Someone on Gardener's Question Time regularly recommends growing grapes in (large) containers, and reminds people it is common practice in Vienna, for example. But again this should be for eating grapes, not wine grapes. You do need to be able to put the container so the vine can run up a sunny wall, or a trellis in a protected sunny spot.
