Well, I won't say my vine has the foliage hidden by berries, but it makes
enough so that you notice them.  You do, however, need to be in near
proximity to the plant - I mean it's not like the berries catch your eye
from across the garden.  Quite nice berries, too, I may add - lovely color
of  blue.

Sorry, can't think of another vine noted for its berries except Bittersweet
(Celastrus spp) and I'm not certain that's a good recommendation because
they are so rampant and have escaped, like Hall's honeysuckle (Lonicera
japonica 'Halliana') to strangle the woods....but it does have noticeable
berries.
