HowTo: define a mountpoint in /etc/fstab that will not auto-mount

Did you try noauto? Also systemd can read /etc/fstab and create mount and automount units for you automatically. After editing fstab, run sudo systemctl daemon-reload. They are named after the name of the mount poing. i.e. mnt-xyz.mount if it is mounted to /mnt/xyz
