Planting Sade Shade Trees and Bushes

Beware that vines can take down trees...and trellises...and chicken runs.

So south facing helps get light/sunshine to them in the winter?

That's the only logic I can think of.
I don't intend to breed them, but I definitely want them to have plenty of sun in the winter. I live in the Portland Oregon area...today, we're floating through an atmospheric river.....forecast for the rest of the week.

Or East facing is good as well. Just not north facing like I did. Maybe I’ll cut some windows for southern light

Agreed if grape vines are not pinched pruned and trained throughout the growth season. My chickens have eaten a large amount that otherwise would have gone to waste.
