There is kind of a sewer smell coming from under my kitchen sink. Any ideas?

In addition to the normal drain line from my kitchen sink, there is another pipe that might be connected to the vent system. This pipe terminates in a special cap that seems to be spring loaded. Why does the venting system have an outlet under the sink?

Today when i turned on the kitchen sink i got this extremely strong smell up my nostrils. I can really only smell it when i turn the water on. It’s almost like a very strong, wine-like smell. It is not a comforting smell though so i would like to know what it is.
The drinking water comes from three wells.
And I can’t really tell if it’s the water or coming from the sink.
