Does anyone know how the ancients spiced wine?

I am learning about Retsina- a greek wine with a pine flavor. I've learned it comes close in flavor to how wine would have tasted thousands of years ago. I've also read that the people of that time would have used honey and spices and even seawater to alter the taste. Does anyone know how I can find out how this flavoring was done? (I seem to have exhausted all the internet information) I'm wanting to have as close to authentic flavor as possible.

That was an interesting question and I learned more myself researching this for you.

Here is an ancient recipe and some History translated from Latin! You will see stepy by step directions and a full recipe from culinaryhistory.org Enjoy & Cheers !!!

Also here is some info from a website (credits below the quote):

"WINES
Peppers were known as an important import from India in biblical times. These spices were used in wine as medications for stomach pain, and similar spiced wines were used therapeutically for centuries afterwards by Greeks, Romans and medieval Europeans. One famous spiced wine that was popular in medieval Europe was named ypocras or hippocras, after tissanes that were prescribed by Hippocrates: a typical recipe would include cinnamon, ginger, melegueta, nutmeg, galingale and honey in wine. Many other sweetened spiced wines were used for pleasure or as prescriptions for numerous diseases. The warming qualities of peppers derived from peppercorns, long-pepper, melegueta (Guinea pepper from Africa) or cubebs would make these pungent wines suitable for use on cold evenings or for diseases characterized by excess of cold humors such as the excessive phlegm of respiratory tract inflammatory conditions. Similar spiced wines, ciders and mead are used today, but they are prepared mainly for their festive value, such as their characteristic use at Christmas time.

Many commercial wines, cordials and liqueurs contain proprietary mixtures of herbs and spices. Cardamon, aniseed, allspice, cloves, cinnamon, ginger and other spices and herbs such as juniper are favorites, while mints and other herbs such as celery might be used as garnishes as much as flavors. Undoubtedly, folk remedies and family traditions lead to many people favoring specific spicy beverages for a spectrum of health purposes varying from aphrodisiacs and digestives to cold preventatives and bronchitis therapies.

One drink of past days was piment, consisting of wine flavored with honey and various spices. The word piment has been used to mean capsicum pepper (chiles), allspice (also called pimento) or black pepper (pimienta). The word is related to the Latin pigmentum, meaning pigment: this word was often applied to the colorful imported spices from Asia. The Anglo-Saxons prepared a sweet, spicy wine which they called “piment”; this was called “pigment” by the Danes who used it. The apothecaries who were entrusted to make this wine were known as pimentarii. Chaucer refers to such people making hippocras or the similar glarry. The pimentarii of Byzantium prepared many medical products according to the needs of physicians."
