Gee whiz....since we carry 36 varieties of hardy vines, I'll put my two
cents in.
Lonicera (honeysuckles)....numerous varieties.
Clematis....numerous varieties.
Akebia
Solanum
Codonopsis
Those are a few that will work.
Stay away from vines that tend to spiral as their means of support.
These are the ones that can choke out a companion plant.
