Thanks for your comment, Alex. I think the main issue with asparagus would be the infamous 'asparagus pee' - interestingly not everyone suffers from that. Southern France sounds good to me too, I just don't know enough about the region to make any useful recommendations. Much of the Viognier I see here in the UK is cheaper supermarket stuff from the New World, which I am not too attracted too. With a good one though I can see asparagus work quite well. Maybe you can take that as an excuse and have some tonight?
