Default vigorous fermantation

I am not sure there is a norm. Some are fast and some are slow. Even with
similar conditions. Some will fizz a lot and some will go quietly about
there business and finish just as quickly. May be a function of the yeast
you are using or the nutrients in the batch or the amount of glycerin in the
must. Or it may be just happy yeast. You have a real party wine going
there! ;o)
