I was going to make it just classic Who, but surely no one would actually vote for Stolen Earth/Journey's End anyway. Right?
Anyway, for me it's between Revelation and Remembrance. Though Genesis is usually recognised as the best (and don't get me wrong, it's great), I think those two just edge it for me. In my view:
Genesis: Great stuff, and introduced Davros. Tells a great origin story.
Destiny: A real step backwards. Made the Daleks into unthreatening twits fighting a war against Boney M. I mean, the Doctor chucks a hat onto one's eyestalk and pushes it away. Ridiculous. Davros is a bit off as well.
Resurrection: A bit boring to be honest, even with a lot of violence. On the upside, the Daleks definitely feel dangerous again. Davros is back on form. Still, not great.
Revelation: This wasn't originally going to be a Dalek story and you could argue it shows, but after two duds it's great to have them in such a fantastic and fairly gruesome story. Saward very much redeems himself after the snorefest of Resurrection.
Remembrance: Almost certainly McCoy's best outing, and another brilliant story. Again, the Daleks feel dangerous. Carries on the Imperial/Renegade bit. Good stuff.
Stolen Earth/Journey's End: Stupid nonsense. Even though the Daleks supposedly have Davros enslaved in the basement, there's a console down there that can blow them up and all their ships. Makes Destiny look like a classic. That said, Bleach makes a great Davros. That's about the only upside though. And getting some planets together means you can destroy all reality? I could go on...
