Heat a Dutch oven and add the oil. Saute the rabbit pieces in the oil until brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Add the wine, cover the pot, bring to a simmer, and cook for 45 minutes. Remove the rabbit from the pot and place on a heated platter. Add the green peppercorns, smashing them in the bottom of the pot with a wodden spoon. Add the cream and bring to a heavy simmer.

Cook for 3 minutes and add salt and pepper to tast. Pour the sauce over the rabbit.
