Some diced fennel bulb (anise) added to the mix might revive the original version’s tarragon flavor if you substitute some other herb.
In honor of Summer Fest, I posted on a fabulous uncooked tomato recipe that’s perfect on a hot summer day, whether or not you’re in Napa: http://hedonismink.blogspot.com/2010/08/gott-tomatoes.html

I have mint and basil growing right now and either one of them would be a good substitute for the tarragon. I think that any fresh herb from the garden would work well. I actually didn’t use as much tarragon as suggested (not a big fan of it), so I added some lemon thyme to fill out the 2 tablespoons.

Maybe fresh mint leaves instead of Tarragon?

In the summer when they are fresh off the vine you can never go wrong with a caprese salad either – sliced tomatos alternating wih slices of fresh mozzrella with olive oil and basil leaves here and there
