Preparation
In a medium saucepan on medium heat, add olive oil to coat pan. Add onion and garlic, sautee around 5 mins until onion is translucent. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Add tomatoes and mix together. Reduce heat to low and simmer for nearly 35-40 minutes. Midway through the cooking process, add wine and Italian seasoning. Continue to reduce down until most moisture has evaporated.
If tomatoe sauce is overly tart, you may want to add some sugar to take edge or bite off the sauce.
