The name here refers to the vertical nature of the geographic locations of the vineyards as well as the style of wine resulting from the very chalky soils of these sites i.e., a more linear, mineral wine. To be specific, the vineyards are located in Cramant, Avize, Oger, and Vertus (north of the village). This is again 100% Côte des Blancs Chardonnay, yet the vineyards from which it is drawn have topsoils that are much thinner and the vine roots plunge straight into the chalky bedrock.
