I discovered an old grapevine on property I recently purchased growing up into the trees. The power company is going to trim these trees soon.
Here is a link that will help you.

Some of our grapes are turning purple but shriveling up. Some have a white appearance like mold and the leaves are lacey with what looks like something is chewing on them. Help!
This is likely Black Rot disease.

I have a grapevine (Cabernet suvinion) I hope I have spelled it right. I planted the vine about five years a go. Has grown vigorously all these years but the fruits lose their berries mostly before maturing. This year I thought I am going to have a better year than last year with abundant fruit, but now all the berries either have dried up or fallen and some are in very bad shape. Please advise me as why this situation is happening and what can be done to improve this plant.
It sounds like it is a pollination issue. This plant does best with another of its kind planted nearby for cross pollination. They can self-pollinate, but most of the time, the plant will drop its fruit if it self pollinates. A second planting should help both produce full grown berries.
My grape vine is 5 years old and it has produced fine bunches. However, last year and more so this year after the bunches have formed and the grapes are reaching full size, many start to turn a pale brown and start to shrivel, eventually falling. The vine is in a greenhouse with the root outside. To assist, can I send a photo to show this problem?
This may be a fungus issue.
I would treat the grapevine with Neem OIl.
I have listed a few links for you.

I recently bought a couple of grapevines and I would like to know if I leave the foliage and some grapes left on. I am building a wire trellis. Also, I bought them in July.
Well if they're newly planted, you're likely to lose the grapes already on the vine if it becomes stressed from the planting, though it will not hurt to leave both the foliage and fruit on the vine. If you would like information on pruning them back, however, this article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/grapes/prune-grape-vine.htm
Leaves on my grape vines are getting dry and brown color. I water often. Last month vines looked nice and green but now they don"t look good. Maybe is too hot?
Check the vines for signs of insects or fungus disease. Treat with Neem Oil if you find any issues, and you may want to use as a preventative treatment.
Be careful to not water the leaves, if your needed to water due to dry conditions, water below.
Occasional drying leaves would not be uncommon as the late summer is upon us.
Review the growing conditions as in the link below.

When is the best time and what is the best way to move my non producing grapevine to a different location in my yard? I am going to put it nearer to the same kind of grapevine that is producing. I think it needs more sunlight. Thank you.
Provided that the grapevine is not too large, you can do this in spring or fall. But please keep in mind that this will not be an easy undertaking, even for smaller vines. Grapevine roots are deep when compared to many other types of plants.
Cut back the vine to 8 inches from the ground. Before you dig out a grapevine to move it, excavate down around the perimeter of the main trunk out a distance of 8 inches or more. This will help you find any peripheral roots and free them from the soil. Once you have the bulk of the outer grapevine roots excavated, dig down deeply in a trench around the vertical roots. You may need help to move the vine once it is excavated.
Lay the roots on a large piece of burlap and wrap them in the material. Move the vine to a hole that is twice as wide as the roots. Loosen the soil at the bottom of the hole to the depth of the vertical roots. Water the vine frequently while it re-establishes.
