My best bet is phidippus johnsoni, the Johnson Jumper, a rather common jumping spider and a rather good velvet wasp mimic. One of its kind recently lived for 100 days on the ISS, only to die a few days after landing at the Smithsonian. So you know they could handle the transportation in a bunch of grapes. Like all jumping spiders, totally harmless, though the velvet wasp it mimics is most decidedly not harmless. Like most insects, though, don't mess with them and they won't mess with you.
