Tartar

One gathered tasteless, crystalline precipitates in the form of heavy-soluble salts in the bottom of the bottle or on the underside of the cork. In the red wine, the tartar is similar to the often widely encountered precipitate found in white wine, but it may look like small pieces of glass. It has no effect on the wine's flavor or quality.
