In the Champagne region of France, wine

My pick is A.

'for centuries' suggests an ongoing action, hence present perfect is appropriate.
Between A & D, D is out as 'has' is singular and 'wine growers' is plural.

A for me too

[wonder]

oa is A

i was a bit confused between A and D

@wonder

me too. i guess we both made the mistake of taking 'harvest' as the focus here, rather than 'wine growers', leading us to make that mistake.

wine growers (plural) .... has (singular) been done - eliminate

but i think that it is not strong reasoning...
