I only voted for Die Walkure, easily my favorite. The ending with Wotan and Brunnhilde is IMO one of the most emotional moments in an opera, gets me every time.

A year later, the same.

I will vote when my Solti set of the complete operas arrives. I have never listened to a complete Wagner's opera so far.  :o

Solti's Ring was my huge breakthrough with Wagner.  What an incredible experience it was!  :)
