I'm a bit confused as to how to modify a noun in some instances. For example, this exercise uses "sauce au vin rouge"  (red wine sauce), and marks "sauce vin rouge" incorrect while another exercise uses "sauce tomate (tomato sauce) and marks sauce à la tomate" incorrect. Can you explain the différent constructs and why one is correct and the other isn't?
