The good standard vinaigrette ratio is 1:3 parts oil. Good place to start.
My wife loves this basic balsamic vinaigrette: 1/2 c. balsamic, 1.5 c. EVOO, with a clove of garlic or shallot, a touch of honey, and a spoonful of coarse mustard. Run that through your blender and it'll stay emulsified for a few days, too.
