The red wine at the seder symbolises HaShem's four statements of redemption in the Torah:
1. "I took you out"
2. "I rescued you"
3. "I liberated you"
4. "I took you to Me for a people"
The wine represents redemption while the colour of the red wine reminds us of the blood of the children killed for the Pharaoh and who we mourn for.

What was it like at the Passover festival?
There are two answers. 1) The first Passover was the day of the Exodus. The Israelites prepared the Pesach-offering and conducted the Seder-meal; at midnight, God smote the firstborn of the Egyptians; and the next morning, the Israelites left Egypt. 2) Every other Passover since then is a reliving of that first year. Passover is a Torah-festival. We eat unleavened bread (matzoh), and conduct the Seder meal.

Passover is not a gift giving holiday. If the question is regarding what to bring your hostess during Pesach (Passover), appropriate gifts are kosher le pesach wine, chocolates, dried fruits and nuts. There are also really nice tea gift boxes and things like that. I assume that you mean children gifts; educational games, such as QuestZion or Kosherland are mostly recommended by Jewish parents and educators. If you are looking for more adult-like gifts, then kosher wine, Seder plates, or some products of Israel would be very appropriate.
