There are no signs of budding at all
It seems that you are right on the line of where it can survive. Some years may not have cool enough temperatures through the winter to let the plant go into full dormancy. If this happens, you may not get anything the following year.
Unfortunately, this will be more of an environmental factor, and replanting may be necessary.
Here is an article that will offer more information on the care of the plant:

ed for about 3 weeks I am tempted to pull them out and buy 2 new plants, however it ha sbeen cold and we have not had a lot of su n. But all the others are madly scrambling up the wall with vigour. should I give on the 2 that look like they have given up.?
I'm sending you a page with a series of links about Virginia creeper, as well as other vining plants. If the plants don't perk up as the weather warms, you may want to consider replacing them, but you may have to be patient and give them some special attention. Here's the page: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/search?q=virginia%20creeper%20vine
We've had a virginia creeper on our property for 40 years. It's always flourished well, but some of the leaves principally at the top are turning brown from the tips and dying off. Any help you can suggest to rectify the situation will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and best regards,
Check for insects. Here is more:

Why are my leaves on my Virginia creeper doing this? See pic
Curling leaves are often a response to stress, such as from weather, over or under watering, or insect invasion. Your plants may be suffering from edema.

2nd year of this worm eating every leaf on my Virginia creeper. Have sprayed with insecticidal soap last year but it didn't work. Please tell me how to get rid of these!
Bt works well for worms and caterpillars. Other pests include scale, Japanese beetles, and leafhoppers.

As someone who is highly allergic to this plant as are many others I think this should have been added to your article about it. Leaving out this vital information could cause many people to have to seek medical attention.
Unfortunately, it is a very rare reaction. It can happen with any plant. Rather than add a warning to every article, it is up to each individual to be aware of what he/she is allergic to.
Please avoid any plants that you are allergic to, and make sure to be aware of any chemicals that are shared with any other plants, so that you can avoid those, too.
Our house is 162years old. We have lived in it for 38 years. We bought it with the Virginia Creeper on the front south facing wall. It’s leaves always turned a beautiful red every September but over the past 3/4 years they just fade to yellow/brown before falling. I wondered why the change had occurred.
It may have lost its vigor over the years. It also could be suffering from a fungal infection that reinfects each year due to fallen foliage. One thing you can do is pick up all the fallen foliage and remove it to the trash. This will help prevent reinfection the next year. In the spring as it is regrowing, spray it with neem oil to help stop new fungal infections.
Weather us one of the things that mostly affects fall foliage. You need dry,sunny and cool -but not frosty cool- days. The plant's variety and enough soil nutrients also help. Any unusually warm trend would delay the arrival of the missing "cool but not frosty cool" requirement. Because weather changes every year and because of a typically warming trend for the last few years, fall foliage may get delayed or you may not get much if the leaves fall before the cooler weather arrives. Note: fall foliage forecasts may not take into account currently warmer temps (most forecasts use "average" temperatures).
