This is the result of endless experimentation. It's vegan but is often the preferred gravy of carnivores at my Thanksgiving table. The roasted shallots and garlic that get pureed into the gravy really make the difference. Plus the umami is really dialed up with mushrooms, nutritional yeast, mustard and madeira. (Note: if you make this in advance, you'll have to thin it out a bit with additional vegetable broth.)
