Maybe ask more questions to draw her in next time, only impart your knowledge as it pertains to the conversation. You can still come across as smart, cultured and "well-traveled" but try to weave your insights/observation within the conversation. I like to refer to this as 'sprinkling'. Sprinkle her with 'breadcrumbs' don't hit her with your whole loaf of knowledge.
Everyone wants to be heard and understood
Give her a chance to qualify herself to you by answering questions
Last thing you want to do is repel your target by coming across as a know-it-all by dominating the conversation.
Use that email as a re-entry point, express your interest. Preferably sooner than later.
