This has been waiting in my fridge for over a month. Having had limited use of a kitchen for the past few months, I hadn't had much opportunity to use it, but we finally had fish last week and I put it to the test. Honestly, I've never had tarragon vinegar before and wasn't sure if I would like, so I quartered the recipe (1/2 cup tarragon, 1 cup vinegar) and it seems to have worked fine. Turns out I do like it, but DH is not a huge fan. I think the smaller quantity will last long enough since I'm the only one eating it. The directions were very easy to follow and it was a great experience.
