Place the new potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and allow to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Finely chop the parsley and chives, then stir them into the dressing.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the dressing over the warm potatoes, tossing gently to coat them evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let the potatoes marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, give the potato salad a gentle stir and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve chilled or at room temperature, garnished with extra parsley or chives, if desired.
