Semaphore Wait vs WaitAsync in an async method

I'm trying to find out what is the difference between the SemaphoreSlim use of Wait and WaitAsync, used in this kind of context:

private SemaphoreSlim semaphore = new SemaphoreSlim(1);
public async Task<string> Get()
{
   // What's the difference between using Wait and WaitAsync here?
   this.semaphore.Wait(); // await this.semaphore.WaitAsync()

   string result;
   try {
     result = this.GetStringAsync();
   }
   finally {
     this.semaphore.Release();
   }

   return result;
}
