Some people think that the taste of the wine gets harmed by holding the bowl of the glass directly with the hand, so the stem keeps that body heat away from the wine. Actually, wine glass shapes come down through history as glass replicas of ancient brass goblets. These had very large bowls, difficult to hold in one hand, so the stem made it easier to handle. As glassware improved, the look stayed the same, although much smaller. So the real answer is that we like the way stemware looks.

These were invented for easier up keep on the glasses, as so many times we start off with a complete set of wine glasses and over the years we have to dispose of a few one by one because of chips in the stems or base. Or they do not fit into a standard size dishwasher, it's just a great invention all the way around. But again has no affect on the taste once so ever."
