2004 Bad Year for Menghai

"A good example is Meng Hai Tea Factory’s 2004 production. The company was struggled with funding problem and could not afford good raw materials. As a result of that, most of the company’s 2004 productions were of poor quality. Many Pu-erh collectors shunned away from those products." from teatalk101.blogspot.com

It is very difficult to get any information on vintages.  Can anyone even make a generalization that 2007 was not a good year because of the hyper-inflation in maocha?
