Taking Wine on Board HAL in Australia

[Jacaluke]

We board our cruise on the Maasdam today and I have another question in relation to the bottle of wine we are allowed to take on board - my son is 19 years old and over the legal drinking age in Australia - is he able to take a bottle of wine on-board?  I know HAL operates under the American system where the legal age is 21 - just curious if this rule still applies in Australia?  Many thanks.
