In a small mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard.
Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning to the vinegar and mustard mixture.
Whisk the ingredients together until well combined and the mustard is fully incorporated.
Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking the mixture. This will help emulsify the vinaigrette, making it smooth and well-blended.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt or pepper if desired.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Shake or stir the vinaigrette before each use to ensure it remains emulsified.
Serve over your favorite salads or use as a marinade for meats or vegetables.
