Deep Dish Pizza Sauce, Meatless

I typically make my pizza sauce with sausage in it, but this is my meatless version for when I have vegetarians around, or just those who don't like sausage (the blasphemers).

2 T olive oil
1/2 t fennel seed, toasted
2 T garlic, chopped
2 t basil
1 t oregano
salt to taste
1/2 t crushed red pepper
2 t burgundy wine
1 t sugar
1 onion, chopped
28 oz can san marzano tomatoes, crushed
1/4 t black pepper, ground

Saute the onion and half of the garlic in the olive oil.  Add in the fennel, basil, oregano, red pepper, and black pepper, and saute until fragrant.  Add in everything else except for the 1 T of reserved garlic, and simmer, covered, for an hour.  Add in the reserved garlic and stir to combine, then remove from the heat.
