No contradiction at all. You are just looking at each verses individually which gives the appearance of a contradiction. Now let me try to explain to you why there is no contradiction.
As STyL4 said, wine represented something deeper back in those days. The wine from that time contained no alcohol. It was purely the juice of grapes. So what Isaiah 55:1 says is to yes, go ahead and celebrate when appropriate and drink wine and milk in order to create a better ambient (Social drinking and eating).
What Isaiah 5:22 says is to beware of those who drink TOO MUCH wine. As you may know, anything you eat or drink in excess is not good for your health (including too much water). The part of the men that mix drinks is self-explanatory.
Like I said before, if you have two paths to take, God will tell you which road is the good road and which road is the bad road. He then grants you freedom to chose which path to take.
