In a small bowl or jar, combine red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk or shake the ingredients together until fully blended.
Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while whisking continuously to emulsify the vinaigrette. If using a jar, simply pour in the oil and shake vigorously until emulsified.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or a touch of honey to balance the flavors.
Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
