Collocation: ἐσμυρνισμένος οἶνος
myrrhed wine wine drugged with myrrh and used as a stupefying potion In general, ἐσμυρνισμένος οἶνος must be rendered by means of a phrase or a clause, for example, ‘wine which has been mixed with a drug called myrrh’ or ‘wine mixed with a drug to reduce pain.’ It is, of course, also possible to use an abbreviated phrase such as ‘myrrhed wine’ and then to place the explanation of its function in a marginal note.
1 The term ἐσμυρνισμένος οἶνος can be seen as semantically endocentric (σμυρνίζω, ‘mixed with myrrh’ and οἶνος, ‘wine’). However, due to its specific role in the passage of MRK 15:23, it was included in this semantic field.

Thayer's Greek Lexicon
σμυρνίζω : (σμύρνα, 4. V-); 1. intrans. to be like myrrh (Diose. 1, 79). 2. to miz and so flavor with myrrh: οἶνος ἐσμυρνισμένος (pf. pass. ptep.) wine [A. V. mingled] with myrrh (Vulg. murratum vinum), i. 6. flavored or (Plin. ἢ. n. 14, 15) made fragrant with myrrh: Mk. xv. 23. But since the ancients used to infuse myrrh into wine in order to give it a more agreeable fragrance and flavor, we must in this matter accept Matthew’s account (xxvii. 34, viz. ‘mingled with gall’) as by far the more probable; [but see χολή, 2].
