Asparagus wine
On Thursday, April 11, the time had come. In Zurich's Engrosmarkt, it was heralded early in the morning: the asparagus season. The best asparagus in Switzerland has arrived. A highlight, for you, for us! In Switzerland, around 180 vegetable producers grow asparagus on 420 hectares, of which we Swiss eat 1.2 kilograms per capita per year. And what do you drink with it?

We have meticulously selected three favourites for you. They fit perfectly and shine with an extraordinary price-fun ratio. Fancy some asparagus wine? These are our favorites:
ALBANA SECCO BIANCO DI CEPARANO ROMAGNA DOCG, ZERBINA
The perfect way to get started! Green asparagus, grilled and served lukewarm with a honey/lemon dressing. This white wine goes well with this, which is reminiscent of the wines from the French region on the Loire due to its cheerful nature. However, it is not Sauvignon Blanc, but pressed from a grape variety that is still little known in our country: Albana. With this combination, you will surprise everyone.
PERINATO SOAVE CLASSICO DOC, GIANNI TESSARI
What would life be without a light asparagus foam soup? In addition, a wine like a door opener. Garganega is the name of the grape variety that Gianni Tessari uses for this purpose. It harmoniously complements the asparagus cream because it is firm, soft, dry and slightly fruity without sinking. You can even convince your grandmother with it. Favoloso.
CORTE DEL LUPO BIANCO CURTEFRANCA DOC, CA' DEL BOSCO
The classic: white asparagus, Parmiggiano shavings, top with hot nut butter and Parma ham. Serve it with a glass of Corte del Lupo, and the day will be saved. 80 percent Chardonnay, 20 percent Pinot Bianco result in a top player that completely convinces everyone with its freshness, its fruit and its oomph.
