Add the onion, celery and carrot and let it cook for a few minutes. Pour in the wine to deglaze the pot add the tomatoes. Let them cook for a few minutes and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the chicken broth and parsley and basil. Simmer for 10 minutes. Increase the heat and add the zucchini and orzo. When the soup bubbles reduce to a simmer and cook until the zucchini and orzo are tender, stirring frequently so the orzo doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot. When the orzo is tender add the cream and continue simmering for an additional 5 minutes. Check and adjust seasoning and top with freshly grated Parmesan.
