Make Ahead White Wine Gravy.
This make ahead white wine gravy is my secret to a stress free and delicious Thanksgiving meal. Rich, smooth, and so incredibly easy, this gravy can’t be beat. Made with a base of butter, shallots, fresh sage, and broth, and finished with the drippings form your Thanksgiving turkey.
Did I ever tell you about that time that I throughly failed at make the gravy for the Thanksgiving meal? It was just last year, and I was serving not just my immediate family, but my grandpa, aunts, uncles, and cousins. So over thirty people.
I was cooking out of my grandma’s kitchen, which in my defense was not anywhere near set up to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for thirty plus people. Somehow, someway, we did, but the gravy? I messed that up, and bad. It was greasy and lumpy and I still cringe thinking about it.
This year, my gravy is going to be perfect. No lumpy, greasy gravy. I’m serving the same amount of people, but cooking in my kitchen at the new studio barn. It’s going to be great, I’m so excited. I perfected the best make-ahead gravy, that’s truly so delicious. It’s true, my family has already approved…because we’ve now had Thanksgiving dinner three times this past week…
Here are the details.
Start by making the gravy base. This is really just a simple mix of butter, shallots (the secret), sage, flour, and high quality broth (I use low-sodium chicken broth). It’s your basic roux, but it makes for the perfect gravy “base”. You can keep the base stored in the fridge for a few days, so it’s perfect to make-ahead.
When it’s ready to serve, and you’ve roasted up your holiday turkey, take the roasting pan and place it on the stove. Add a splash of white wine and scrape up all those delicious browned bits from the roasting pan. Let the wine simmer and reduce slightly, then add the gravy base, whisking until smooth. Adding the base right to the roasting pan with all the turkey drippings gives you the rich flavors that your gravy needs. But without any of the stress of making the gravy from scratch. Trust me, making this gravy ahead will relieve so much stress on Thanksgiving Day. It’s a game changer.

Make Ahead White Wine Gravy
Rich, smooth, and so incredibly easy, this gravy can't be beat. Made with a base of butter, shallots, fresh sage, and broth, and finished with the drippings form your Thanksgiving turkey.
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons salted butter
- 2 medium shallots, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups low-sodium chicken or turkey broth
- kosher salt and black pepper
- pan drippings from herb roasted turkey
- 1 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio
Instructions
-
1. Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook 5-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant. Add the sage and continue cooking another 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the shallots, stirring for 1-2 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil, boil 5 minutes, or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Strain, if desired.
2. Allow the gravy to cool, then store the gravy base in the fridge for up to 3 days.
3. To finish the gravy. Once your turkey has finished roasting, remove the turkey from the roasting pan and strain the liquid into a glass measuring cup.
4. Place the roasting pan over two burners. Add the wine and bring to a boil, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 3-4 minutes or until the wine has reduced slightly. Reduce the heat to low and slowly whisk in the gravy base. Simmer until the gravy is smooth and thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. If needed, thin the gravy with the reserve broth from the roasting pan. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
Recipe Notes
To Make Gluten Free: Use an equal amount of your favorite gluten free flour blend in place of the all-purpose flour. I recommend Cup4Cup gluten free flour.

Thank you!
This new Make ahead Gravy seems soooo much easier, than the original White Wine Gravy! I had difficulty with the original recipe, as you can see below from 2 years ago! I’m hoping this year the gravy won’t be sooo dark!!. Do you still recommend after you strain the liquid from the roasting pan & letting it settle, to place in the freezer for 10 min., like the original recipe states?

I am glad to hear that your gravy was dark brown too, not like the photo! I did have a lot of brown bits on the bottom of the pan, so hence, maybe that is why the gravy was so dark. Any tips to have the gravy color like the photo? The gravy is very good, so I can now rest easy!!! Thank you again for a fabulous recipe!!

Hey Leslie! Just use less of the brown bits. Thanks!
Hey Leslie! You can strain the the liquid, but you don’t have to as you will not be using all of it from the pan. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
This looks wonderful and I plan to try this recipe, You may be aware of a TOP quality product in the broth/bouillon catergory called Better than Bouillon. It is the GO TO for all major chefs ( Ellen’s, Oprah’s etc). It is not just sodium which is basically what all box or cube are. If it is chicken bouillon, CHICKEN is the first listed ingredient. Same with the beef, lobster, vegetable bouillon. Another major difference ( as if that is not enough)is the way this product is used. It is a paste that you reconstitute with water. The remainder of the jar can be stored in the refrigerator for 6 months( YES) to be used in all your cooking. The box must be discarded ( even with refrigeration) within 7 days of opening as bacteria will begin to grow. So while it may initially costs more, in the end it does not and it is a FAR superior product. It comes in many flavors and also lower sodium for the chicken . I hope that you try it and let me know what you think. LOVE your posts and that you are young and taking food prep and cooking to the next level for home cooks. Thanks!
Hi Emily! Thank you so much for this and I hope I get a chance to try this!
Bit off topic – but that ladle is soooo pretty!!

Thank you!
This looks amazing! I am having a party this week and want to make this gravy, but will not be roasting a turkey. Can I substitute something else for the turkey drippings?
HI! You can just omit the drippings. It will not be quite as flavorful, but still delicious. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
How much of the liquid from the turkey drippings do you use? Is it used only for thinning the gravy? Thanks
Hi Teresa! The broth from the roasting pan is only used for thinning out the gravy, you should use around 1/2-1 cup of the broth from the roasting pan. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
We smoke our Turkey so no drippings. Any suggestions?
Hey Jessi, that’s ok! Just make the gravy minus the drippings. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
This recipe looks amazing and I wanted to ask you opinion on using it as a spicy gravy. Every Thanksgiving we make a spicy turkey (injected with butter, pepper and Tabasco), and deep fry it. The resulting drippings are really spicy, and we like to incorporate it into a spicy gravy. Do you think this base would lend itself well to spices? I’m looking for a good, flavorful base that we can add those spicy drippings to.
HI! I think the spicy based sounds so delicious. It will work great with this gravy! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
Gravy is one of my favourite foods. Does it count as a food? On mash, on Yorkshire puddings (please do a recipe for Yorkshire puddings or toad in holes!!!), on pizza crust (yeah…)…on anything. GRavy.
It totally does in my book! I hope you love this gravy recipe, Rae! Thank you!
I miss trying tonight with pan fried pork chops and smashed potatoes. Will let you know if it turns out. I plan on using pan drippings of course. I am SO thankful for a make ahead gravy!!
I hope you absolutely love this recipe, Liz! Please let me know how it turns out for you! Thank you!
What kind of oven dish do you cook your Turkey in? I don’t have an oven pan that’s safe to put on my coil stove burners. but can buy one. Thank you.

If I’m vegetarian could I use vegetable broth for this or would that be bland?
HI! I am sure veggie broth will be great! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
If I don’t have easy access to fresh sage, would dried work – or should I wait until I can track some down?
Hey Alexa! You can use 2 teaspoons of dried sage. That will be great! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan
Would you triple the make ahead gravy for 20 people? It’s hard to gauge how many this will serve.
Thanks,
Kelly
Hey Kelly, If you want to be safe I would triple it, but I think doubling it should be fine. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much! xTieghan

Have you ever tried making this with gluten free flour (or something like almond flour, or other GF flour substitute)? My sister has celiac, in the past I’ve gotten her a separate GF gravy but would love to try this out GF! I’m just not sure if it would thicken the same way? Any suggestions? Thanks!
Hi there! I have not tested with GF flour, but I do think it would work well. Or you can try using cornstarch. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much and happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
I would love to have a gluten-free suggestion as well. Would possibly cornstarch work with this make-ahead gravy? Thanks for all your wonderful recipes this Thanksgiving.
Hey Nine, I am sure using cornstarch will be just fine! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much and happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
We use one of those disposable tin roasting pans for our turkey, so I can’t use it on the stovetop. Can I strain the drippings from the pan and use those to make the gravy instead of the bits that are stuck in the pan? Or is there another good way to get all that turkey flavor?
Hi! Yes, just strain the drippings from the pan and use those to make the gravy. That will be great! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much and happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
will this still work without drippings? we are frying the turkey this year.
Hey Emily! It still works without the drippings, but it’s not as rich in flavor. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much and happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
If I’m not using drippings at what point would I add the wine since I won’t be using it in the roasting pan? Thanks!
HI! Add the wine with the broth and simmer an additional 10 minutes. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much and happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
How many people does this recipe serve?
Hi! This will serves around 8 people. Please let me know if you have other questions. I really hope you love this recipe! Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan

Hey Nicole! It is easier to strain this before storing. Please let me know if you have other questions. I really hope you love this recipe! Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
Such a delicious and easy recipe. This gravy got rave reviews at my Thanksgiving dinner!
Thank you so much Holly! I am so glad you loved this recipe!
I don’t think people normally rave about gravy on Thanksgiving… EXCEPT this year! Everyone in my family absolutely loved this recipe and it was insanely easy to make given the prep you can do in advance. The deglazing of the pan also aided in the dishwashing – win! Thank you for this delicious recipe – 5 stars. 🙂
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you so much Larissa!
This recipe saved the day! So nice to not scramble at end of a long cooking day to make the gravy!!! Will do this every Thanksgiving from now on. Delicious even before adding turkey drippings at end. Hooray!
Thank you so much Julie!
Made this gravy for thanksgiving. So easy and sooo delicious!! Everyone loved it too!
I am so happy to hear that! thank you so much Michelle!
Thank you, Tieghan, Wonderful recipe. Used this for Thanksgiving dinner and everyone loved it. Making the base ahead made everything so much easier. You are my go to blog now when I need a recipe. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much Nancy! I am so glad that you loved this recipe and it turned out amazing!
So I have been making gravy for a long time and have tried several different techniques including the part about scraping the bits off the pan with wine. Having lived in New Orleans for almost 12 years and getting tips from Mom-in-Law and every aunt, Nana, friend etc. but for what ever reason this is by far the BEST gravy I have ever made! Thank you!
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you so much Vanessa!
I used this for Thanksgiving and we had exceptional gravy this year…and so easy!made ahead, stored in the frig, when time came, I put in a saute pan and added drippings. Because we had so many drippings, I actually added a little flour. So, so good.I never care about the color of gravy, just how it tastes!
Thank you for such an excellent recipe and a really great idea!
I am so glad you loved this Liz! Thank you!
This recipe totally saved me…I had these glorious plans of making my turkey in this stunning copper roasting pan but of course the one I ordered turned out to be on backorder and I had to settle for a rack in one of those single use aluminum trays. It turned out but I knew I wouldn’t be able to put the aluminum on a stove top and scrape up all those flavorful bits. This gravy made it possible for me to have gravy! I made it a couple days ahead and just added a little of the broth/drippings after the turkey came out. I would definitely use this base again but I would cut down on the shallots. (Maybe mine were on the larger side but I found it to be a little too strong)
Hi Beata! I am so glad you loved this recipe so much and it turned out amazing for you!
This was the BEST gravy I have ever had and love that the base could be made ahead of time. Do you have one for beef as well?
HI! No beef gravy, but I would thin you could just swap the chicken broth with beef broth. Please let me know if you have any other questions. So glad you love this recipe. Thanks so much and happy Holidays!! xTieghan ?
The recipe is amazing. the best part is the video. Thank you very much I will cook this for my family.
Thank you so much Ema! I am so glad you love this recipe and the video! xTieghan
Do you think Gluten free flour would be OK as a sub?
hi! Yes! I would recommend cup4cup GF flour. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! xTieghan ???
Hi Teighan! Long time listener, first time caller. Would this still work if using beef broth? Or would the white wine clash with the beef flavor? I have some beef bones from the butcher and would like to use homemade stock for this.
Thank you! Love the blog.
Hey Rose! I think beef broth will be great and pairs nicely with the wine. Fun idea!! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! xTieghan
Could please tell me how many batches of this wonderful gravy you would make for 70 people?
It is a mixture of 2/3rds adult and 1/3 children.
Thank you.
Hi Pam! I would make 3 batches to serve 70 people. If you want to place it really safe, make 4. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! xTieghan
I plan on making this gravy recipe this year! Do you have a favorite white wine for this? I’m also going to purchase the gluten free flour you recommended!
Hi Colleen! I love using Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! xTieghan
Hi! I am wondering if you think this would work without the turkey drippings? We always smoke/grill our turkey and there are never drippings that are usable. Your insight and thoughts would be appreciated! Thank you!!
Hey Kristen! Yes, it works, but it’s a little less flavorful. I would add 1 tablespoon soy sauce to the gravy for an additional flavor boost. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! xTieghan
Hello, just a question — i have an electric stove top. Would the part of scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan still work on electric?
Hey Claudia! Yes, it will work just the same! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! xTieghan
Hi there, one quick question. I think I may have to use an aluminum roasting pan to accommodate my turkey. If I do have to use this, I will not be able to put it on my stove burner. What would be your suggestion in this case?
Hi Colleen! Just simply transfer your turkey drippings to a large pot and then make the gravy in that. This will work great!! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! xTieghan
Hello!!!! I have a vegetarian coming to Thanksgiving, so I’m going to try one with veggie broth. How many day’s do you think it will keep once made? I want to do the veggie one a few days ahead if possible. Only if you think it will keep. That way I’m not trying to put two gravy’s together the day of.
Thanks!
HI Lisa! You can make this 4-5 days ahead of time. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! xTieghan
Could I puree this instead of straining?
Hi Larissa, I am sure pureeing will work great! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! xTieghan
Making the base ahead of time helped this gravy come together quickly. Stress free and delicious!
Thank you!! I am so glad you loved this! xTieghan
I made this for Thanksgiving and it was fantastic! Thanks, this helped to make things easier for me, as this was my first time cooking a full Thanksgiving dinner, and it also tasted fantastic!
That is so great! Thank you Amy! xTieghan
This was the easiest gravy I’ve ever made. I love the make ahead base. All food was served hot due to the quickness of gravy coming together. My family couldn’t stop ooing and awing? THANK YOU!
That is so amazing to hear! Thank you so much Cecelia! xTieghan
So good, I made it twice! We had two thanksgiving celebrations this year, and it was so good for the first one that my dad requested I take it to the second one! I omitted the wine for one, because of religious reasons for that side of the family and it still turned out great!
I am so happy to hear that Sarah! Thank you for trying it! xTieghan
Fantastic! Making the base ahead of time really helped on Thanksgiving.
Thank you Andrew! I am so glad this turned out so well for you! xTieghan
I’m making a ham instead of a turkey. Is there something I can substitute for the turkey drippings? Would bacon fat work?
Hey Rebecca,
I haven’t tried that and worry the bacon would be too overwhelming, I would just skip it:) I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Could you freeze this a week ahead?
Hey Meg,
Yes that would be fine to do. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Is there a way to make this into a vegetarian gravy?
Hey Tiffany,
I would sub vegetarian broth and omit the turkey drippings. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
If I get some turkey parts to roast a day or so before Thanksgiving, can I make this even more “make ahead?”
Hey Martina,
Sure that would work! I hope you enjoy the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
I just made this to prep for Friendsgiving on Saturday. Oh my goodness, it is delicious!! It will be even better after adding the drippings and white wine! I almost feel like I need to make another batch since it was so good! Thank you for the recipe!!
I am really glad this turned out so amazing for you, Kelsey! Thank you so much for trying this! xTieghan
Is there any non-alcoholic substitute for the white wine?
Hey Mouada,
You can use additional turkey broth. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Made this last year! Best gravy I ever made. And love it was done just needing to warm the next day! It will be my go to every year
That is so amazing to hear! Thank you Bernadette! xTieghan
Would you do anything different if you’re just roasting a chicken, much smaller than a turkey? It’s just two of us this year, hence the chicken. But we can’t miss out on gravy!
Hey Sarah,
Nope, I would follow the recipe as it:) I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
This sounds great! I have a pre-made recipe where I roast turkey 4 turkey wings up to 3 days before, along with carrots, celery, and onion. Then I simmer in 8 c chicken of turkey broth, cool and thicken with flour, add white wine seasonings etc. Having the gravy pre-made makes my Thanksgiving pretty carefree! I’m definitely adding fresh sage this year! Love your recipes! Can’t wait to try the cranberry and brie pastry bites. I know those will be amazing, Great ideas, I especially have enjoyed the squash and prosciutto combination on pizza. I haven’ been able to find Burrata around here, but I am going to try making it myself. Food and Wine Magazine has an article on making it at home. Sounds a little fussy, but worth it for Christmas Eve or New years eve! Sounds like its inexpensive to make.
Hi Linda! I am really glad you like this gravy and I hope it turns out well for you if you try it! I love that you are going to try making burrata yourself! That is amazing! Thank you! xTieghan
We are frying a turkey and won’t have drippings. Anything we could use to up the flavor and color?
Thanks!
Hey Nicki,
I would just follow the recipe as is and omit the drippings part:) I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
What gravy would compliment a smoked gravy?
My love a red wine second a blush what do you recommend for Thanksgiving?
Hey there,
Sorry I have never made a smoked gravy, I like to serve Cabernet Sauvignon. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Hello, where can I find the video on how to make this?
Thank you!
I too will not have any drippings as I will be buying my turkey this year. So do I just skip steps 3 & 4 altogether, as in omit drippings and white wine? Thx for your help!
Hey Celestin,
Yes, thats what I would do. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
This sounds great, can’t wait to try it! how far in advance could I make the gravy? Wondering how long it will keep in the refrigerator. thanks!
Hey Kara,
You can make up to 3 days in advance. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Hi! I want to make this for my family this year but we aren’t doing Turkey. I know… crazy! 🥴 We are doing a ham, prime rib and stuffed chickens. Is there a way for me to make the gravy and it be just as delicious without using the roasting pan from a Turkey? Any ideas for me?
Hey Ashley,
I would just make the gravy as is minus the pan drippings. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
My husband smokes our turkey and it is so wonderful, BUT there are never any pan drippings. Do you have any ideas on what to do? How do you make gravy without pan drippings :((
Hey Missy,
You can do this recipe without the pan drippings:) I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Does this only last in the fridge 3 days? Could I freeze the sauce?
Hey Isabela,
Yes, 3 days and yes you can freeze:) I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
If you are smoking a turkey and don’t have drippings what would you recommend?
Hey Tami,
Just follow the recipe as is, you will just have to skip the drippings:) I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
This was perfection! I added a splash of brandy at the end, but otherwise followed the recipe. SO GOOD! Truly foolproof gravy and it really works to make it ahead!
This looks wonderful- any chance you can freeze the base?
I have a question we don’t cook a turkey but still love gravy lol. Can I still use this recipe and not do step 3 and somehow do step 4 without the turkey juice?
This might be a dumb question but, does the wine cook out? Or can I substitute it with something else? 8 months pregnant and while I’d love 1 cup of wine lol, I’m trying to be overly cautious. But this recipe looks amazing!
Hi Sam! The wine will cook out, but if you would rather use something else I suggest turkey or chicken broth! Congratulations on the baby! xTieghan
This looks so good! Unfortunately I have a few guests that prefer no alcohol , what you recommend in place of the white wine. I’ve seen a few options such as apple cider vinegar, ginger ale, white wine vinegar and apple juice. I was just curious what you use. Thanks!
Hi Sarah! I would suggest using turkey or chicken broth! I hope you love this recipe! xTieghan
Should I strain all the shallots. Maybe I used too many. Otherwise I won’t have a smooth gravy?
Hey Teresa,
Sure you can do that. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions. Happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
Do you strain or not strain? I want to do whatever you do!
Hey Nicole,
I strain. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions. Happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
This is the best gravy recipe I’ve ever made! I did sub out the white wine for apple cider because…2020 has no rules, but it is delicious and so easy!
I am so happy to hear that! Thanks Sarah! xTieghan
This gravy was delicious! We fried a turkey so I didn’t have drippings, but some soy sauce added in was a nice depth of flavor. This was great with the turkey, potatoes, dressing, and Brussel sprouts lol. It’s so good!
Thank you so much! I am really happy you enjoyed this one! xTieghan
Fantastic! Best turkey gravy ever.
Thank you so much Jill! I am so happy to hear that! xTieghan
This was literally THE BEST gravy I have ever had; and so fun to make. SO DAMN GOOD
Thank you so much Linsey! xTieghan
This gravy was delicious! Made double the recipe with chicken drippings instead of turkey as well as the recommended gluten free substitution and it was insanely good. Thank you so much. Was such a hit.
Thank you so much Julia! xTieghan
I made the base Thanksgiving day a couple hours before dinner. I doubled the amount except for the shallots and sage. It was so delicious. Even picky little eaters loved it . Will make again and it was so easy. I even made your chai pumpkin pie recipe which was also enjoyable with homemade ice cream.
Thank you so much Carole! I am really glad this recipe turned out so well for you! xTieghan
Best gravy ever….I made ahead added wine and drippings on day of….worked wonderfully…Had not done white wine gravy….taste is perfect. One of the first recipes i tried from you…looking forward to many more. I read your posts weekly.
