Summer sauce is just what I call it.. I don't know if there is a right name for it!

I saute some garlic in olive oil and then take the garlic out and add some dry white wine (Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc is good here). I don't know how much I add.. I'd say probably a good 3/4 of a cup. When the wine starts to cook down I put the garlic back in, squeeze in some lemon juice - probably about 3-4 lemons. And added some freshly chopped tomato.. maybe 2 cups or so? Cook until heated through and fragrant.. maybe 8 minutes or so? Add salt to taste, throw in some fresh basil and toss it with the pasta. Then add some good Reggiano. It's light and easy to make.
