You will have needed more coats w a solvent sealer. Keep coating til stone doesnt absorb. Should use a thicker sealer though.  Solvent is for less porous stones.
Bottom-line - bad stone choice for kitchen and wet/product-prone area. Stone will always etch with alcohol and acid. If not sealed thoroughly/appropriately you will have these issues.
I would attempt to poultice his stains and then seal with a porous stone sealer (511 porous plus - for example).  Sealer needs to dwell for atleast 15-20 mins before next coat. Keep applying till no more bubbles. Buff last coat to remove tackiness.
