Probably the Petzoldt Ridge on Grand Teton.
But Direct Exum, Beyer East Face, Irene's Arete, and SW Ridge of Symmetry Spire would be close.

I'm sure she means Igor...
First thing that comes to mind is The Rostum for pure climbing.
But if I had to repeat something for ever it would be a Bigwall on El Cap
Or a Big Mountain in a Big Range..

I know you say "one" but I was never really good at reading comprehension.
Right Side of the Hourglass or
Crack of Despair (or was it Doom?) with Matt and Bruce or
Regular Route on Fairview when it was still an adventure climb.
Then there are the ones we wish we had another shot at in our prime, e.g. Peter Left, which then reminds me of Peter Pan that I still might (unlikely) get up again.

Maybe . . . Hobbit Book. Only done it once. The thing is that what's great about it depends a lot on what is unknown--the runout sections, and finding the start of the thing. In fact, now that I think about it, repeating a climb is profoundly different experience than doing it for the first time..
Lots of climbs I've done I wouldn't repeat. But you have to first do them to know this.

Now that all that weird frog stuff is left back on the first page I'd have to say Frogshead at the gunks. I've climbed that thing a lot and it still puts a smile on my face every time. I haven't been back in over three years but I can still remember every move on it. Just a true gem. The best part is finishing over the final roof so you can see the frogshead that the climb is named for. I kid you not it looks just like one.

It's just plain fun whether I'm in [my version of] good or bad shape, has variety, has the views, would work in good or bad weather with varying amounts of gear.
And as I get older I might value chillin' afterwards in the Ahwanee lobby more.

I love questions like this. Need to think about it.
The responses so far really make me want to get in shape for the Rostrum. I count about five Rostrum votes. Unless I missed 'em, no Astroman (ed: Jaybro FTW!), no RNWF yet...
Edit: might be Tenaya. Just love that climb.
