Glad I added a test for exactly this (well only the a-blob case,
but a-tree will be the same):

test_expect_success 'describe tag object' '
     git tag test-blob-1 -a -m msg unique-file:file &&
    test_must_fail git describe test-blob-1 2>actual &&
    grep "fatal: test-blob-1 is neither a commit nor blob" actual
 '
