This period of prosperity was brutally interrupted by the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) which devastated the region. Pillaged, depopulated and ravaged by disease, all commercial activity declined dramatically. The re-birth of Alsace viticulture came three centuries later, after the First World War, when winegrowers adopted a policy of "quality first" and decided to produce wines only from the traditional, high-quality grape varieties.From 1945 onwards, this policy was reinforced by delimitation of the vineyard area, and by strict enforcement of production and vinification legislation.
