Exegesis
In rhēxei ho oinos tous askous {ῥήξει ὁ οἶνος τοὺς ἀσκούς | rhḗ-xei ho oî-nos toùs as-koús}, ho oinos ‘the wine’ functions as subject.
The subsequent apodosis kai ho oinos apollytai kai hoi askoi {καὶ ὁ οἶνος ἀπόλλυται καὶ οἱ ἀσκοί | kaì ho oî-nos apó-lly-tai kaì hoi as-kói} uses the passive apollytai ‘is destroyed’ to stress complete loss.

And no one puts new wine into old wineskins ; otherwise, the wine will burst the wineskins and the wine is destroyed , and the skins are lost as well; but new wine belongs in new wineskins.
