Either bring the water from cooking asparagus or fresh water with the asparagus peels and ends to a boil and simmer for about 20 mins. Drain the water and set aside. Discard the peels and ends.
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter and add the flour. Mix and cook for a few minutes.
While constantly whisking, slowly and gradually add the asparagus water. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 5 mins.
Add the bouillon, lemon juice, white wine, and sour cream and whisk until blended. Do not bring back to a boil.
Season to taste with salt, sugar, pepper, and possibly more lemon juice.
