1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Combine 1/4 cup butter, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, herb seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
3

Place the turkey, skin-side up, in a roasting pan. Loosen the skin with your fingers; spread half of the butter mixture over the turkey and under the skin. Reserve the remaining butter mixture. Tent the turkey loosely with aluminum foil.
4

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Baste with the remaining butter mixture, return to the oven, and continue cooking until the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 30 minutes more. Move the turkey to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
5

Transfer about 1 tablespoon of pan drippings to a medium skillet. Add the shallot and cook on low until translucent, about 5 minutes.
6

Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet; whisk in the wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Whisk in the stock and flour until smooth. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened. For a creamier, lighter gravy, whisk in the half-and-half.
7

Slice the turkey and serve with the gravy.
