I was given a Pinot Noir vine as a present. I do not want to grow it
outside as I would not expect any fruit this far north (Manchester). So I
will plant it in a container in my conservatory.

Any advice from anyone who has done this successfully? I am not able to
cut a hole in the floor to allow the plant to root in the natural ground,
nor can I grow it outside and train it in through a hole in the wall as I
have seen suggested.


Just to note that you have excluded possibly the two best ways to grow your
vine.
Generally planting ouside and leading through into the greenhouse is one of
the best ways.
Why can you not do this?
You could plant in a pot outside and still lead the fruiting part through
into the greenhouse.
