Mocking (diaxleuazontev). Old verb, but only here in the N.T., though the simple verb (without dia) in Acts 17:32. Xleuh means a joke.
With new wine (gleukouv). Sweet wine, but intoxicating. Sweet wine kept a year was very intoxicating. Genitive case here after memestwmenoi eisin (periphrastic perfect passive indicative), old verb mestow, only here in the N.T. Tanked up with new wine, state of fulness.
