Wine - I know "Appellation d'origine contrôlée" is a quality label and côtes = slopes. But AOC Côtes (and nothing after)?

côtes by itself means Hillsides or slopes.
but for an AOC the whole purpose is to identify which hillside or slope
Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée French Abbreviating to AOC, this is the highest level of the French system of geographic naming control. It was developed in the 1930s to regulate French wine production, purity and geographic origin, and is administered by the Institut National des Appellations d'Origine, or INAO. Rules for AOC qualification are stringent and far-reaching, covering everything from grape varieties and winemaking methods to yields and vine density. Wines from regions that have not earned AOC status may fall into the VDQS category or vin de pays, or they may simply be vin de table. The very successful AOC system has been emulated -- with mixed results -- by most wine-producing countries as well as the European Union, whose quality wine designation is its parallel.
