Heat oil in a roasting pan and brown the leg all over. Cover and roast in the oven for about 1 hour 30 minutes, basting occasionally with wine and broth. After 70 minutes remove the lid and finish roasting uncovered. Take out the leg, wrap in foil, and rest for about 10 minutes. Reduce the roasting liquid with broth, strain through a sieve, and stir in the remaining cream. Slice the meat and serve with the sauce.
