I have started a library with some cuttings from USDA, but I am in Decatur
so my conditions are not like yours. If you want to take time and experiment,
get some cutting this fall/winter from them and self root them in pots with
your soil and see what happens. In most of Texas you have to have grapes on
specific root stock because of soil and Pearce's disease.
For my spot the seedless seem to not doing as well as seeded types. And I
have Concord on second leaf producing this year took 20 pounds off them.
Niagara's don't seem to do well at my place.
Also the nursery's that will sell you vines will know pretty much which
wines will grow in your area. Do a soil analysis first so you can give them the
information they need, e.g. PH, chemical analysis etc. They need this so that
the correct root stock is grafted to the vine.
