The vine WILL grow back and more. Grafting a broken limb on a vine is a waste of energy as the bleeding of the vine makes it very hard to get a good union.
Your vine is most likely actually something like Himrod, as there are no commercially available seedless forms of Niagara.

Snow fell off my roof and totally broke my Niagara white seedless (yummy)

anyway, but sigh, hate to lose the whole vine. Anyway to save it?
