new wine in old bottles
"молодое вино в ветхих мехах", новое содержание в старой форме [часть выражения put new wine into old bottles; см. put new wine into old bottles]

The new spirit had animated the prose of Chateaubriand and the poetry of Lamartine; but it was the spirit only: the form of both those writers retained most of the important characteristics of the old tradition. It was new wine in old bottles. (L. Strachey, ‘Landmarks in French Literature’, ch. VI) — Новые веяния вдохновили прозу Шатобриана и поэзию Ламартина. Но эти новые веяния затронули одно только содержание. Что же касается формы, то здесь Шатобриан и Ламартин следовали старой традиции романтиков. Это было новое вино в старых мехах.
