Rabbit in a cage

Cut the rabbit into 6 pieces and remove any bones. Finely chop the rosemary needles. Peel the garlic and crush it with the juniper berries. Squeeze the lemon and mix it with the olive oil, white wine vinegar, and spices to make a marinade. Place the rabbit pieces in the marinade, turning once an hour, for at least 3 hours. Place the meat and marinade in a covered casserole dish and braise for 50 minutes at 180°C in a preheated oven. Then add the white wine and braise uncovered at medium heat until the liquid is almost completely reduced.
