Rinse meat, pat dry and season on all sides with salt and pepper. Rinse, peel and trim carrots, celery, onion and garlic and coarsely chop.
In a roasting pan, melt butter and brown meat on all sides. Remove meat and set aside. Add vegetables into roasting pan and fry for 4-5 minutes while stirring. Add tomato paste, briefly heat and deglaze with half of red wine. Leave to fully boil down, then deglaze pan with remaining wine and stock.
Place meat back into roasting pan and simmer with the lid closed over medium heat for 1 1 / 2 to 2 hours. Add spices and simmer for another hour.
Remove finished meat from sauce and keep warm. Strain sauce through a fine sieve into another pot, let boil and thicken with a little flour butter (flour and softened butter in a 1: 1 mixture). Arrange sliced meat on a plate and pour over gravy. Serve as desired with fresh noodles.
