Default Rancid smell

I have a 5 gallon batch of strawberry wine fermenting in my kitchen right
now. I got the recipe off Jack Keller's site. It has been fermenting for
two days now and the airlock is really ripping fast. It is giving off a
smell that is not pleasant, my guess is that it is normal but my wife is
concerned because it is kind of rancid. Anyone know what is normal?
