It mentions the in Greece, there are some kinds of wines infused with tree resins that are still commercially made, though it doesn't comment on the quality. I'd be really interested to try some of those out too. The article also mentions that while no liquid remains, there is residue that gives clues about what the wines were flavored with. I hear that the Hellenistic Greeks in particular were fond of adding various herbs to their wines to produce different buzzes, so who knows if those wines (if reproduced) would even be legal.
