The best Wines with Asparagus
It's finally starting – this year's asparagus season. Whether green or white asparagus: the popular stalked vegetable delights the palates of many gourmets. Incidentally, asparagus bears the name "royal vegetable" because it used to be served only in royal houses. Of course, a good glass of wine is a must. We'll tell you which wine harmonises with the royal vegetable so that nothing stands in the way of your culinary pleasure.
White's for Asparagus
With white asparagus, the wine should not be too acidic and delicately aromatic so that it does not mask the flavour of the asparagus. As green asparagus has a stronger flavour of its own, the accompanying wine can be a little more full-bodied, as can the rich Hollandaise sauce. Grape varieties such as Weißburgunder, Sauvignon Blanc or Riesling are best suited.

Our recipe recommendation: Green Quiche with green asparagus and goat's cheese
Whether for brunch, as a light meal or a tasty snack between meals: This delicious asparagus quiche from our partner winery Spier is our favourite for this year's asparagus season. And this is how it works:
Ingredients
(for 4 people)For the pastry:
- 140 g Flour
- 100 g cold butter
- 125 g grated cheddar cheese
- ½ Tsp Salt
For the filling:
- 4 large eggs
- 250 ml sour cream
- 1 Tsp Dijon mustard
- 100 g goat's cheese
- 1 handful of fresh herbs (e.g. dill, tarragon, chives)
- 150 g green asparagus
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Preparation
Place the ingredients for the pastry in a mixing bowl and mix for about a minute. Then press the pastry evenly into a quiche tin (alternatively, you can also use a springform tin), cut off the edges if necessary and set aside. Now preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare the filling.
Crumble the goat's cheese and chop the herbs. Place both in a bowl with the eggs, sour cream and mustard, season lightly with salt and pepper and stir until smooth. Pour the mixture over the pastry and place the asparagus on top. Place the quiche tin in the oven and bake the asparagus quiche for around 40-45 minutes until cooked and golden brown.
Our Wine Recommendation
The Spier 21 Gables Sauvignon Blanc 2022 is the perfect accompaniment to this delicious and sophisticated quiche, as its freshness and mineral finish balance out the rich flavours of the quiche wonderfully. The fruity notes of gooseberries, kiwi and above all the light herbal flavours harmonise beautifully with the dish.
Red's for Asparagus
With red wines, it depends on how you prepare the asparagus. Red wines with a high tannin content do not harmonise so well with dishes with asparagus, as they are often too dominant. Lighter red wines, on the other hand, can also be a good accompaniment to full-flavoured dishes with meat and green asparagus.
