If you are planning on drinking an Oregon wine such as a Blush-Rose then you will want to eat one of the following cheeses:
Colby Jack
Monterrey jack
Gouda

These are great wines to go with your Blush Oregon wine because of their smooth and mild flavors. They will not overpower your lovely Oregon wine and their textures while different than each other will perfectly complement the soft feel of the Oregon wine.

If you are going to be drinking an Oregon wine such as the Cabernet Sauvignon then you will want to have one or two of the following types of cheeses to go along with it:
Baby Swiss
Bleu Cheese
Brie
Camembert

Some of these cheeses come with an edible crust. If you prefer it without the crust you can simply cut it off but whatever you do you will enjoy pairing any of the above cheeses with this particular Oregon wine. These cheeses have distinct tastes, for example the baby Swiss has a soft and nutty flavor while the bleu cheese has a peppery one, but they all blend perfectly with the wonderful tones of the Cabernet Sauvignon Oregon wine.
