Red sauce recipe that includes wine as an ingredient?

I was out this weekend with friends and we ordered toasted ravoli. It was servied with a red sauce that obviously had wine in it. It was absolutely the best non-meat sauce I ever had.

Does anyone have a recipe for red sauce with wine? Finding one that sounds good on the web would be acceptable but it would be best if someone has one they make at home.

    1 6 oz. can tomato paste

    1/2 cup of water

    1 teaspoon oregano leaves

    2 teaspoons basil leaves

    1/2 teaspoon of pepper and sugar

    1 teaspoon salt

    1. Saute the minced onion and garlic until soft.

    2. Add and stir: tomato sauce, tomato paste, wine, water, salt, oregano, basil, pepper, and sugar.

    3. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer slowly for 90 minutes.

    Easy and nice with pasta:

    - Fry a finely chopped onion and a crushed clove or two of garlic, until they're translucent.

    - Add a can of tomatos. Whole plum tomatos taste better than chopped, but go with what you have

    - Using a potato masher, mash the sauce so it's fairly liquid but still has some lumps.

    - Simmer (NOT BOIL) until the sauce has reduced by at least half (or pref. 3/4) and is nice and concentrated.

    - Add a decent slosh of red wine or red wine vinager.

    - Mix well. If you're using wine, leave to cook for a bit to cook off the alcohol (or it will taste quite harsh). If you're using red wine vinager you can serve almost straight away.

    Serve with any sort of pasta.

    I recommend playing with this sauce until you get the ratios of everything just how you want - some like more wine, some like less.
