There is, after 70-plus years, ..no seminal, definitive work, like a Dark Knight Returns, for/from the WW comics, and that is truly a shame. Most of the greatest, modern WW stories can probably be found, in other comics, like Justice League and assorted issues of Superman. Below, is a rough list of the best of WW...

Arc "Challenge Of The Gods", G. Perez
Second Run (all trades), G. Rucka
Trades #1-4 (incl. 'Blood' and 'War'), B. Azzarello
Trades: 'The Contest' and 'Fall Of An Amazon', W. M. Loebs
Trade 'Second Genesis', J. Byrne
Mini-series Issues #1-4 'Legend Of Wonder Woman', K. Busiek
Assorted Issues (pre-Crisis), R. Thomas
Assorted Issues (Mod Era), D. O'Neil
Assorted Issues (Mod Era), M. Sekowsky
Assorted Issues (1941-1948), C. Moulton
Assorted Issues JLA, C. Morrison

I sadly don't have seven yet, but...

1. Legend of Wonder Woman - Not only my favorite Wonder Woman book of those I've read, but one of my favorite comic books period.
2. Wonder Woman Earth One (volume one) - If nothing else it's pretty unique and neat I think, and the art's good. Need to get around to getting volume two sometime soon...
3. Wonder Woman Year One - Personally a far cry from the other two Wondie stories I've listed, but it's alright.

1. Wonder Woman: the Golden Age Omnibus, at least volume 1
2. Wonder Woman by Greg Rucka Volume 1
3. Wonder Woman by Greg Rucka Volume 2
4. Year One
5. Godwatch
6. Wonder Woman: Earth One Volume 1
7. Wonder Woman: Earth One Volume 2

I probably would recommend some of the Azzarello trades despite my not liking large parts of it. It is too major and divisive a run for people to not check it out and form their own opinions. My dislike of it, especially compared to the rest, is the main reason I left it off. Morrison is already dicey enough but I love the art and what he did with Psycho, Etta and Paula so he trumps Azz for them at least.
