Add wine to the pan.
Bring to a boil, scraping up any brown bits from bottom of pan with a wooden spoon.
Stir in mustard, tarragon, salt and pepper to taste.
Whisk in cream and boil until mixture thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
Return chicken to pan; turn in sauces to coat and simmer about 6 minutes or until chicken is tender.
Remove chicken to a serving platter and spoon the sauce over it.
