Seemingly inexplicable stalling with the newer Porsche models is often the 1st sign of a fuel pump problem. There are two fuel pumps. A light pressure pump and a high pressure pump. Often the high pressure pump gets blamed and sometimes it is the bad one. But the low pressure pump is critical too and if it can't keep the high pressure pump properly supplied with fuel the high pressure pump can't work right.

A problem is if the stalling is due a malfunctioning fuel pump the pump may not quit outright but just fail intermittently.

I'd advise you to take the car in and get a pro tech's opinion. Maybe there is a test or a check that can be made (or possibly a check for any error codes) to confirm the stall was due to a fuel supply problem and perhaps can determine which pump was the culprit?
