Pruning and care of wisteria vine

I bought a property with a wisteria vine on it. The host was a red oak. I didn’t know it was a wisteria and cut it about 4′ from the ground. It was a massive vine reaching 60′. Will it live and how do I care for it?

Wisteria can take pretty severe pruning, so it should be ok. As a matter of fact, one of the biggest complaints about wisteria is that it is so hard to get rid of.
