Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Season the ribeye beef roast with salt and black pepper, ensuring an even coating all over the surface.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Sear the beef roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared beef onto a roasting tray. Add rosemary sprigs and peeled, smashed garlic cloves around the beef.
Peel and cut the potatoes into quarters. Peel and chop the carrots into large chunks. Peel and quarter the onions.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes, carrots, and onions with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the vegetables around the beef on the roasting tray. Place the tray on the middle rack of the preheated oven.
Roast at 220°C (425°F) for 20 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 180°C (350°F). Continue to roast for another 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the beef reaches 55°C (130°F) for medium-rare.
Once cooked, remove the beef from the oven, cover it loosely with foil, and let it rest for 20-30 minutes before carving.
Meanwhile, make the gravy: Place the roasting tray on the stovetop over medium heat. Sprinkle the flour over the pan juices and vegetables, stirring well to combine.
Gradually add the beef stock and red wine, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until the gravy thickens. Strain the gravy into a saucepan, discarding the solids.
Carve the rested beef and serve it with the roasted vegetables and warm gravy.
