Meanwhile, heat 1/2 cup olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute 2 to 3 large, minced garlic cloves until softened. then add 3 pints multi-colored grape tomatoes, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and a pinch of sugar. Pour in 1/8 cup of dry white wine. Cook until tomatoes burst and release their juices, about 8 to 10 minutes.

Toss sauce with pasta; add 1/4 cup chopped Italian flat leaf parsley. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
