Well are you looking for width or thickness? You want a vertical pulling movement or a pullup variation to his the teres to give some width as well.

I don't believe in any one supreme exercise to build up any particular bodypart. It takes teamwork in my opinion for complete muscle development.
For lat width I like
Weighted pullups, hammer chins and chins all with a medium grip.
Slightly wider that shoulder width pullups and hammer chins specificly for width.
Rows are good as well.

I agree with who said they didnt believe in any one exercise to develop a muscle in a certain way. You can work certain exercises that work a muscle at a particular angle, but you need overall muscle development to keep any part of the muscle to keep growing.
Similarly, I also don't believe in any one variation of intensity (heavy, moderate, drop sets, etc.
That said, the one movement I love for back is underhand lat pull-down. I feel I hit the lats pretty well, lower lats.

To widen your lats for that V shape go with wide grip chinups, lat pull downs and dumbbell pullovers
