"Dear Leo,
I just saw you profile here and as a fellow traveler and humanist I thought it was my duty to contact you.
I don't live in Hkg but I'm spending more and more time there and I'm very interested in your project. I've been working on starting a small specified wine club there and have some bigger aspirations as well.
I was wondering if I could rack your brain a little bit and get some of your specific thoughts on a few things. Feel free to reply @ your leisure and thank you for any considerations.
Cheers
