mayor gradación según envejece


Explanation:
adquiere mayor contenido en alcohol,o mayor gradación, con los años, según envejece, sería una interpretación `posible de "strong"; otra cosa sería si se refiere a que se intensifica su sabor con los años, pero creo que aquí strong se refiere al contenido de alcohol
