Bring water to a boil, along with 3/4 cup of the wine.
Add pasta and cook al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, and then drain the pasta well.
While the pasta is cooking, toast the pine nuts in a large skillet. Place the nuts in a dry skillet. Heat over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until golden and fragrant.
Transfer to a plate and set aside. In the same skillet over low heat, add the olive oil, crushed red pepper and mashed garlic. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, then add the remaining 1/2 cup wine and the cream (or coconut milk) and cook for another 3-4 minutes or so.
Add the cooked angel hair to the skillet, coating the pasta with the wine sauce. Add the reserved pasta water, coating well, then stir in the parmesan cheese and basil.
Plate and top with extra parmesan cheese and chopped basil, toasted pine nuts, and enjoy with a glass of DAOU Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon!
