Installing Centos - should I choose minimal install option?

My hosting company is setting up a new dedicated server for me with Centos 6. The server will be used as a webserver and so I will installing Virtualmin using the install script.

Which install option should I request? Is a minimal install the best option, and if so does the Virtualmin install script add packages that are needed?

To be clear about my question above, I'm referring to the Centos install options (minimal, desktop, basic, web server, database server etc.) - not the Virtualmin install.

Is Centos 6 Minimal a good starting point?
