Meanwhile, soak the bread in cold water, then squeeze out the water. Add the bread to the blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, pour in the oil in a thin stream, then add the vinegar, scraping down the sides often. Pour in the grape juice and iced water 1 cup at a time. Season with salt. Chill in the refrigerator, at least 6 hours. The soup should be very cold. Serve in chilled soup bowls and garnish with the grapes.
