George Leo Haydock, on Prov 20:1

“Wine is a luxurious thing, and drunkenness riotous: whosoever is delighted therewith shell not be wise.”

“A luxurious thing. Hebrew, “a scoffer.” Chaldean, “renders one a scoffer.” — Drunkenness. Hebrew ssocor, any strong drink, particularly palm-wine. Intemperance places the strongest obstacles in the way of wisdom. It causes a person to mock at all sacred things, and to be quarrelsome, chap. xxiii. 29., and Ephesians v. 18.”
