Pre heat oven to 350. In a large cooking bag, sprinkle the flour. Add the tomato sauce, wine, water, bouillon and seasonings. Add the roast and vegetables. Turn and squish to make sure all is coated with the liquid. Tie up bag and place into a 13 x 9 pan. Make 2-3 slits in the top of the bag with a knife so steam can escape.
Cook for 2-2 1/2 hours until tender.

Be careful when opening bag. Use scissors, keep everything in the cooking pan and just cut away the bag.
