I've found patches often need a touch up. Check your favorite supplier
for a stain pen. Sample search:
https://www.homedepot.com/s/stain%20pen
Lots of results for stainable wood filler too.
https://www.homedepot.com/s/stainable%20wood%20filler
I used a small DAP tub years ago and you had to really look to see the
nail hole filler. I stained the trim before installation and touched up
the filled nail holes after installation. I did use a slightly darker
stain pen because the filler spots were lighter.
