In a small bowl or a jar, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Whisk or shake well to blend the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the tomato mixture and gently toss to combine all the ingredients and coat them evenly with the dressing.
Season the salad with salt and black pepper, toss again, and adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
For the best flavor, allow the salad to sit for about 10 minutes at room temperature before serving, to enable the flavors to meld together.
