In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is activated.
Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the salt, and half of the flour (about 250 grams) to the yeast mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until combined.
Gradually add the remaining flour, a little at a time, mixing and kneading until a soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles and transfer it to the prepared baking tray. Stretch and press the dough into a rectangular or oval shape about 1-2 centimeters thick.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the dough and use your fingers to press dimples all over the surface.
Scatter the grapes evenly over the dough, pressing them gently into the dimples. Sprinkle the fresh rosemary and flaky sea salt on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the focaccia is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the hot focaccia. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
