Wash and trim the woody ends from the asparagus spears.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper to evenly coat.
Place the asparagus spears on the preheated grill in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
Remove the asparagus from the grill and arrange them on a serving platter.
Sprinkle the fresh raspberries evenly over the asparagus.
Using a fine grater or vegetable peeler, shave the Asiago cheese over the asparagus and raspberries.
Drizzle the dish with lemon juice for a bright, tangy flavor.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil leaves, if desired, and serve immediately.
