Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Evenly sprinkle roast with flour; set aside. Heat canola oil in an oven-proof Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add roast; brown on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Off heat, pour in water and wine; season with basil, salt, marjoram, thyme, and black pepper. Arrange onion slices on top roast.
Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for 3 hours. Add pearl onions, potatoes, and carrots. Add additional water if roast looks dry. Continue baking, covered, until roast easily pulls apart with a fork, about 1 hour more.
