23449 0 Avenue, Langley, BCSouth Langley, Zero Avenue at the US border (Township)

DirectionsOn Zero Avenue east of 232 Street. Zero Avenue runs right along the US border, so keep to the road and don't stray south.

The name is a family history lesson. Before there were vines on Zero Avenue, there were greenhouses.

Who owns it: the de Jong family

Arthur and Ingrid de Jong came to Langley from the Netherlands in 1983 and went into the greenhouse business. They closed their last greenhouse in 2004. The land on Zero Avenue had been growing Christmas trees, and the family turned it into a vineyard instead. They made their first wine in 2015, and the Langley Advance Times reports that the tasting room opened in March 2017. The glass-walled tasting room is a nod to the greenhouses that came before.

In March 2019 the family handed day-to-day operations to the Joseph Richard Group and kept the land. That arrangement ended in November 2024, and Glass House is back to being fully run by the family. Son-in-law José (Joe) Matos is the winemaker, and daughter Margit de Jong manages operations.

What’s in the glass

Glass House works small: hand-picked, single-vineyard, low-yield estate wines. That means whites and a rosé, Pinot Noir and Merlot, and two wines with Latin names, Stellatus and Austellus. Those two cost extra in a tasting ($10 more for Stellatus or the Merlot, $15 more for Austellus).

Note that the tastings here aren’t the quick $10 kind. The basic experience is $35, but it includes a bottle to take home, so it’s closer to buying a bottle and tasting the range than paying a fee.

The setting

Zero Avenue is the road along the Canada–US border, and the winery’s pin sits about as far south as Langley goes. In the photo above you can see the footbridge, the pond and the picnic tables between the tasting room and the vines. The family uses the grounds for events through the year: 2026 brought a PISRA Show & Shine car show (August 30) and the West Fine Art Show (September 18–20), and it hosts private events too.

Two house rules to know before you go: no pets at all, and no outside food. Kids can come if they’re supervised.

Awards and recognition

We didn’t find any competition medals or business awards for Glass House, either from awarding bodies, the winery’s own site or the press. If they’ve won something, tell us and we’ll add it.

Not drinking? Brunch on a weekend is the easy way in for the non-drinker in the car.
