Preparation:

Gazpacho Base: Cook the tomatoes, wine and garlic on medium for 15 minutes, allow to cool for 5 minutes and place in the work bowl of your food processor. Puree until very smooth and as the machine is running, slowly pour the olive oil into the running machine. Strain through a large holed sieve into a glass bowl and chill for 4 hours. Grilled Vegetable Soup: Preheat the grill. Toss all the vegetables in the olive oil and season. Carefully grill all the vegetables making sure to get grill marks (that's where the flavor is). Set aside to cool. When cool enough, cut all into uniform small dice. Add to the soup base and adjust the seasonings. Black Bean Relish: Combine all of the ingredients and chill until ready to serve. Ladle the soup into 8 bowls and serve with the black bean relis
