Method
Combine the vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper. Preheat the grill and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.

Toss the vegetables with the vinaigrette and grill until tender. When the vegetables are cool enough to handle, cut all but the onions into 1 1/2 inch dice. Leave the onions in rings.

Cook the capellini in the boiling water until tender to the bite, about 6-8 minutes. Drain well. Heat the oil in a saute pan. Add shallots and garlic. Sauté until aromatic. Add the grilled vegetables, tomatoes, and the wine. Heat thoroughly. Season with the herbs, salt, and pepper. Adjust the consistency with the stock if necessary.

Toss the capellini with the vegetable mixture and sprinkle with the gorgonzola cheese.
