AMHERST — After a rehearing on LaBelle Winery’s proposal to expand its facility, local zoning officials have once again granted all of the necessary variances for the development to proceed.

Despite concerns from about 15 neighbors that the 24-room inn, restaurant, distillery and office space will alter the rural character of the community, the zoning board voted last week to allow the complex, which will be constructed across the street from the existing winery, to move forward to the planning board phase for additional review.
