Season beef if desired, with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large saucepot over medium-high heat and brown beef well on all sides. Remove beef to bowl; set aside.

Return beef and wine to pot; add 1 cup water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer covered stirring occasionally, until beef is tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
