Combine eggs and next 4 ingredients. Beat with a wire whisk until blended. Pour egg mixture over layers in dish. Cover and chill 8 hours.
Bake strata, covered, at 350 F. for 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven, and spread with sour cream. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Broil 4 inches from heat with electric oven door partially opened 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Garnish, if desired. Serve hot. 8 servings.
NOTE: If you’d like to omit the wine in this rich brunch dish, substitute 2/3 cup milk.
