Old and new wine represents the old and new covenant. That is why you cannot put old wine into new wineskins. The wedding represents the wedding feast of the Lamb. We cannot understand the literal if we do not understand the symbolism.I would say in the sense of prepared wine that only one is true and that the wine is seconds old. despite its characteristics being similar to that of old wine doesn't actually make it old wine, it just makes it appear like old wine.
The "marriage feast of the Lamb" is a metaphorical image described in Revelation 19:6-9, which symbolizes the ultimate union between Christ (often referred to as the Lamb of God) and his followers, who are often referred to as the "bride of Christ." This union represents the culmination of salvation history and the unity between Christ and his believers in the final days.
The symbolic connection between the Wedding at Cana and the marriage feast of the Lamb comes from the idea that the miracle at the wedding, where Jesus turned water into wine, foreshadows the abundance and joy that will be present in the eternal kingdom of God. Just as the wine miraculously flowed at the earthly wedding feast, so too will the blessings and joy flow in the divine kingdom.
