Sorry Charlie just saw this heres my take...
Syrah, Gamay and Zinfandel all fall into the Pinot Noir type wines so if that your favorite flavor profile play around with those until you find a bottle, two three that you like in the price range that suits you as well.
You maybe asking yourself, so Fatz what about a good Merlot? Well nothing really its just that Merlot is used to blend a lot of wines and if you fine a good one go for it.
All the sharp cheddars will go great with those wines. Again its about what you like.
I also love edam, smoked gouda and manchego with these types of reds.
When doing just wine and cheese I really like the english water crackers like Carr's because they really don't add much and don't detract from the stars, the wine and cheese.
Here's one for you...just across the border, since your also a Tillamook and Deschutes man.
Oregon Canned Pinot Noir, yup in a can, under $10. Goes awesome with room temp Extra Sharp Tillamook.
Oregon is known for producing some great Pinots.
Barefoot Winery also makes some good lower cost wines. Produced in my neck of the woods.

Reading between the lines. Kind of depends since they seem to vary so much. Personally, I have never had a Pinot Noir from the Russian River area that has disappointed so I tend to just buy them anymore. Cheese-wise I think a apple or peach wood smoked cheddar or gruyere is my favorite (along with some sliced apples and some candied walnuts). Speaking of smoked cheese - I need to find some time to do it again - kind of a pain but worth it.

My go to box wine has been House Wine Pinot Noir. https://originalhousewine.com/our-wine/pinot-noir-3l-boxAs far as cheese, whatever tickles your fancy. Pepper cheeses and sharp hard cheese is always good. Smoked Gouda or cheddar....

I was at a wine tasting once. It was a lot of fun, especially pairing the wines with different foods and cheeses.
Red wine right? Not as strong as a Cab??
Maybe try an Edam or Havarti??
I am MAGA.

Does that Rogue River Blue hurt a little bit when you eat it?
You know.....a similar bite in the back of your mouth like the first garden tomato of the year?

No. It's really rich, smooth, and creamy.

Does that Rogue River Blue hurt a little bit when you eat it? Shifting slightly to blue cheese - Wife and I had some Australian a bit ago called Roaring 40's blue. Really excellent. https://culturecheesemag.com/cheese-library/Roaring-Forties-Blue

I like sharper cheese with fruit and wine. Blue,sharp cheddars. We don't drink Pinots often easier to find Merlots and Cabernets that are good and reasonably priced.
