Preheat oven to 450ºF. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet and set aside.
Rinse asparagus and trim off the tough ends, about 1-2 inches.
Lay 1 piece of prosciutto flat on a cutting board. Place 3 spears of asparagus on top of the prosciutto near one end. Spread about 1/2 ounce of goat cheese on top of the asparagus where it overlaps with the asparagus and begin to roll the prosciutto around the spears tightly. Repeat 7 more times for remaining pieces of prosciutto.
Place prosciutto-wrapped asparagus bundles on oiled baking sheet, seam-side down. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season with a bit of salt and pepper.
Bake for 10 minutes. Switch to broil and cook an additional 2 minutes.
Remove prosciutto-wrapped asparagus from the oven and serve immediately. If desired, top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
