In a small mixing bowl or a glass jar with a lid, combine the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and white wine vinegar.
Add the minced garlic, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper to the lemon juice mixture.
Slowly whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil while continuously whisking to emulsify the dressing. If using a jar, secure the lid and shake the jar vigorously until well mixed.
Stir in the lemon zest to the dressing for an added touch of citrus flavor.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper according to your preference.
Store the vinaigrette in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use to re-emulsify the ingredients.
