      1 sm -Yellow onion, finely diced

  Pour the wine into a large, non-reactive saucepan. Add shallot and
  garlic and place the saucepan over high heat. Boil until almost all
  wine has evaporated. There should be a small amount of moisture in
  the bottom of the pan. Stir in butter or margarine and cook over
  medium-low heat until it melts. Stir in the flour and blend
  completely. With a whisk, very gradually stir in the milk. Bring the
  sauce to a simmer and cook slowly for five minutes.
  
  In the meantime, puree the pimientos in a food processor or blender.
  Stir the pimiento puree and the crabmeat into the sauce and season
  with salt. Bring the sauce back to a simmer and cook slowly for 2 or
  3 more minutes.
  
  Toss sauce with cooked pasta and serve immediately.
