Instructions

Stir diced tomatoes, water, red wine, tomato paste, celery, carrots, onion, garlic, oregano, sage, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper together in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until carrots are tender, about 1 hour.
Fill a blender halfway with sauce. Cover and hold the lid down with a potholder; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Pour into a clean pot. Repeat with remaining sauce. Alternatively, use an immersion blender and purée sauce in the pot.
